I have a D15 with a Baggs M1 Passive. I use a Baggs Venue DI too.
This is my BEST live sound. The D15 cost me $1000. The Venue $250, and the PUP $150 Cost is all-in at $1400. My second best live sound is a Tak P3NC with a CTB2. Third best is my K&k equipped guitars with a red eye. |

The EF341SC was sold...it wasn't bad plugged in but was quite bright and tinny sounding. It would be a good choice if you prefer a bright Taylor-like sound.
Yes the DCPA4 is new. I am currently trying a Fishman Aura Spectrum pedal with it. I'll report back results soon.

Yes I've considered Cole Clarks. I don't really care for their extremely plain look and I've read they are very easy to ding and dent, which isn't what you want in a road guitar. They did sound pretty good amplified but had a very pronounced midrange to them. Wish there were more around locally to try though. Which model do you have?

I do agree about the 'plain' look, which is mostly brought on by the thin satin nitro finish they use. But as I got used to the look I came like it for its simplicity. I'm not a big fan of some of the looks of the wide and wild variations of the top woods they use, like the Redwoods with the very wide sapwood centers but I do like the wide grain Redwood tops with no sapwood center. All their tops seem to vary widely (and wildly) from guitar to guitar. Some I like, some not so much. But they all amplify very well which is the key for me.

I really like my Martin D-16GTE. You could find one used under that price. I liked it so much I bought a Martin D-16GT without the cutaway and installed a K&K mini. I like the combo a lot.

Only issue with the 16GTE is that they have the old barn door type Aura installed. Once those preamps go, you are out of luck.

I kinda like mine (D-16GT with JJB) too. You could probably find one for $700.
